Connected Mobility

Although infrastructure, vehicles, and road users all operate within the same transportation systems, they remain loosely connected. This creates information silos that prevent drivers, pedestrians, traffic managers, and other stakeholders from making informed, timely decisions. My research aims to break these silos by enabling real-time information sharing and communication among all parties involved in transportation. This can lead to improved traffic flow, reduced congestion, and enhanced safety outcomes. Some questions I aim to answer include:

• How can infrastructure and vehicles communicate securely and efficiently in real time?
• What technologies best support seamless data exchange among diverse road users?
• How does improved connectivity impact traffic safety and congestion?
• What are the privacy and security implications of connected mobility systems?
